NAME
gdcmdump - .TH "gdcmdump" 1 "Fri Oct 29 2010" "Version 2.0.16" "GDCM"
NAME
gdcmdump - .SH "SYNOPSIS"
gdcmdump [options] dcm_file gdcmdump [options] dcm_directory
DESCRIPTION
The gdcmdump command line program dumps a DICOM file to the console. For those familiary with dcmdump output, gdcmdump has some minor differences. Namely:
- *
- For Implicit Transfer Syntax gdcmdump will print ?? instead of the dictionary VR
gdcmdump has a limited private dictionary that is used to lookup private element whenever possible.
PARAMETERS
dcm_file DICOM input filename dcm_directory DICOM input directory
OPTIONS
OPTIONS
-x --xml-dict generate the XML dict (only private elements for now). -r --recursive recursive (input is a directory) -d --dump dump value (limited use). -p --print print value instead of simply dumping (default). -c --color print in color. -C --csa print SIEMENS CSA Header (0029,[12]0,SIEMENS CSA HEADER). -P --pdb print GEMS Protocol Data Block (0025,1b,GEMS_SERS_01). -A --asn1 print encapsulated ASN1 structure >(0400,0520).
general options
-h --help
print this help text and exit
-v --version
print version information and exit
-V --verbose
verbose mode (warning+error).
-W --warning
warning mode, print warning information
-E --error
error mode, print error information
-D --debug
debug mode, print debug information
special options
-I --ignore-errors dumps even if file is corrupted (advanced users only, see disclaimers).
Typical usage
Printing Implicit Transfer Syntax
The VR are not found in the file, thus are presented with a '(??)', and right next to it (if found) the correct VR.Eg.:
$ gdcmdump GE_DLX-8-MONO2-PrivateSyntax.dcm

Print Private Attributes
GDCM has a limited private dictionary. Whenever possible, it will try to lookup the private data element.

SIEMENS CSA Header
Using this option it is possible to dump as a readable text what is contained in the private attribute as found in typical SIEMENS MR DICOM file.Eg.:
$ gdcmdump --csa MR_SIEMENS_forceLoad29-1010_29-1020.dcm
(0029,0010)siemens csa header Image shadow data (0029,xx10) 0 - 'EchoLinePosition' VM 1, VR IS, SyngoDT 6, NoOfItems 6, Data '64 ' 1 - 'EchoColumnPosition' VM 1, VR IS, SyngoDT 6, NoOfItems 6, Data '64 ' 2 - 'EchoPartitionPosition' VM 1, VR IS, SyngoDT 6, NoOfItems 6, Data '32 ' 3 - 'UsedChannelMask' VM 1, VR UL, SyngoDT 9, NoOfItems 6, Data '255 ' 4 - 'Actual3DImaPartNumber' VM 1, VR IS, SyngoDT 6, NoOfItems 0, Data 5 - 'ICE_Dims' VM 1, VR LO, SyngoDT 19, NoOfItems 6, Data 'X_1_1_1_1_1_1_31_1_1_1_1_19' 6 - 'B_value' VM 1, VR IS, SyngoDT 6, NoOfItems 6, Data '0 ' 7 - 'Filter1' VM 1, VR IS, SyngoDT 6, NoOfItems 0, Data 8 - 'Filter2' VM 1, VR IS, SyngoDT 6, NoOfItems 0, Data ...
GEMS Protocol Data Block
Using this option it is possible to dump as a readable text what is contained in the private attribute as found in typical GEMS MR DICOM file.Protocol Data Block : 0025,xx1b,GEMS_SERS_01
$ gdcmdump --pdb GE_MR_0025xx1bProtocolDataBlock.dcm

Encapsulated ASN1 Structure
This option is mainly used for dumping the ASN1 structure of the encrypted Attribute (0040,0520)
$ gdcmdump encrypted.dcm
